but he definitely told one good joke. In the height of the Orkneys child abuse scandal he played a gig there and his opening line was:
"Surprised to see so many of you here. I thought you'd all be at home fucking your kids".

What I saw of the programme last night was thoroughly depressing though.

a bad documentary.
Clearly the guy is from the old school and is a right prick. The thing that was highlighted in the programme was when he did make racial jokes, sometimes people didn't laugh but cheered. They know what they're going to see and he gives them what they want to hear. He's not gonna start changing his act now and clearly there are some sad people out there who wanna here this stuff.

People make fat jokes and that all the time, which is almost as bad as racism, and never get the abuse he does.
Obviously being fat doesent have connotations with slavery/centuries of abuse, but its still discrimination, and at the end of the day, its just a joke.
